Thx for taking care of this.

Nevertheless there might be a earlier problem has some bug assignee
was not reset to the new maintainer or co-maintainer. It would be wise
to refresh the assignement before doing that.

Also a week delay seems short to me. Some might be in vacation and
might miss the announcement. I would like to see another reminder
before closing the bug.

@packagers, please reassign the bug to the appropriate version or use
unspecified if appropriate.
